1. • You are scheduled for a specific time each week.  This is your assigned time slot.  Your payments and attendance hold that slot for you.  If you do not pay or come for your lesson, your slot will be given to another student.
2. • You must call at least two hours before the start of your scheduled lesson if you are going to miss a lesson.  If you call before your scheduled time, you will be given two slots from which to choose a makeup slot.  Should you not attend either, you will still be required to pay.
3. • Exceptions will be made for real emergencies.

1. • You are more than welcome to observe your child’s lesson, but please do not distract your child.  Children, especially younger ones, have difficulty concentrating, and we would appreciate if you would do your best not to break their concentration.

3. • If there is an emergency and your teacher is unable to attend the lesson, you will receive a call as soon as possible and your lesson will be rescheduled
